All My Superpowers Come from the Law of Causality

Chapter 317 - 251: Fate Apertures, the Foundation of the Strong_2

The others also began to speak.

The five of them were instantly crushed when they joined forces. Even if they were foolish, they knew they weren’t a match, not even the entire Profound Nether Sect could rival Su Xin. In this situation, they didn’t dare to put on airs as Life Acupoint Realm masters – they behaved quite obediently.

Su Xin was silent for a moment before asking,

"What are your cultivation levels?"

The five of them weren’t sure why Su Xin was asking this, but they obediently answered immediately:

"I’m at the mid Life Acupoint Realm."

"I’m at the late Life Acupoint Realm."

"I’m at the mid Life Acupoint Realm."

"I’m at the early stage."

"I’m at the early stage too."

Su Xin pursued, "And Bai Bingfeng?"

The five of them exchanged glances, and finally, the second elder Zhou Bochen spoke:

"He should also be at the mid Life Acupoint Realm."

"Do you have any masters at the Dharma Realm in your sect? Or someone of an even higher realm?"

The hearts of the five tightened.

They feared that Su Xin might attack since they lacked a powerful backing, and they didn’t dare to hastily claim that they didn’t have such backing.

But they also didn’t dare to boast recklessly.

Zhou Bochen pondered for a moment and said,

"Our sect’s strongest is at the Life Acupoint Realm, but our sect... it is an affiliate sect of the upper-tier sect, Silent Heaven Sect. Our grand elder has a deep relationship with one of Silent Heaven Sect’s elders."

Su Xin’s face changed, and he angrily said,

"Are you threatening me?"

Zhou Bochen quickly explained, "No, not at all. I just didn’t know why Senior Su was asking, so I explained a bit; it wasn’t intended as a threat!"

Su Xin snorted coldly,

"Stop with your nonsense, don’t think I can’t understand your threat. I’m telling you, I fear neither Heaven nor Earth, and am not afraid of anyone’s threats!"

"I don’t care if you’re backed by Silent Heaven Sect or any other sect, I couldn’t care less."

After saying that, Su Xin charged at them, beat them to a pulp, leaving them bruised and humiliated.

"Scram!"

After that, he picked them up and tossed them away like little stones towards the distance.

The wide official road wasn’t far from a small town, so there were quite a few onlookers. Although they kept their distance, they basically saw the situation and heard what Su Xin said earlier.

Once these words spread, even if Silent Heaven Sect doesn’t plan on opposing him, they would have to react, at the very least send a strong figure to confront him in person.

Otherwise, Silent Heaven Sect’s reputation would be utterly tarnished.

Su Xin shook his head in disappointment.

Then he closed his eyes.

After entering stealth state, he left behind an Illusion Body, burst with extreme speed, and sprinted forward to seek suitable targets for his business.

...

Su Xin arrived at the small world.

"Mid and late Life Acupoint Realm power isn’t much. It seems that they are all weaker than Bai Bingfeng, not on the same level at all."

"Is this the true power of the Life Acupoint Realm? Or is Bai Bingfeng somewhat unique?"

Su Xin pondered silently.

Even though he utilized his true self in this battle and his strength greatly improved, he could still sense the disparity between his opponent’s strength.

"Since Zhou Bochen is at the late Life Acupoint Realm cultivation level, Bai Bingfeng shouldn’t be much stronger, perhaps he just has a better Cultivation Technique."

"The Life Acupoint Realm..."

"Most crucial is the Cultivation Technique."

"To break into the Dharma Realm, either nine acupoints suffice, or one hundred and eight acupoints work too. The latter, compared to the former, in the same cultivation circumstance, is over a hundred times stronger."

"Therefore, Bai Bingfeng’s strength over Zhou Bochen at the late Life Acupoint Realm can’t rely on cultivation disparity but the acupoint difference."

"Coincidentally, my cultivation nearly breaking into the late Sea of Qi Realm, soon enough, I will need to search for new Life Acupoint Techniques."

"For future martial development, I need to find a top-notch technique to help me open up one hundred and eight acupoints."

"If suitable ones can’t be found in those major sects, perhaps trying Bai Bingfeng might work."

Based on Su Xin’s understanding,

Among martial arts realms, if Trunk and Limb and Body Refining signify martial foundation.

Then Life Acupoint Realm is crucial for masters.

To become a true pinnacle master, Life Acupoint Realm is indispensable.

Life Acupoint is the energy source for the martial artist, storing a large amount of True Qi, simultaneously refining Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi to recover and enhance True Qi.

Nine acupoints render the amount and recovery rate of True Qi equivalent to nine times.

One hundred and eight acupoints; the amount and recovery speed of True Qi are equivalent to one hundred and eight times.

The latter surpasses the former twelve times!

Crucially, after Life Acupoint Realm, the acupoints throughout the body condense into Dharma Aspect, determining the strength in the same realm by the number of acupoints.

Nine acupoint Dharma Aspect Great Power, and one hundred and eight acupoint Dharma Aspect Great Power, the strength cannot compare.

Post-Dharma Realm, at every realm, power relates to the number of acupoints.

Once Dharma condenses, future attempts to increase acupoint count become impossible.

Thus, martial arts hold a theory that–

The Life Acupoint is the master foundation.

In other realms, being behind is tolerable, but once falling behind in Life Acupoint Realm, opening fewer acupoints will limit martial prospects.

However,

Opening of acupoints follows sequence, beginning with the Dantian Acupoint, one by one, establishing True Qi circuits to ensure successful opening and maintenance, not just random methods will suffice; it requires specialized Life Acupoint Techniques.

Moreover, vast amounts of material are needed.

And substantial time investment.

Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi is indispensable.

Thus, even aware of the Life Acupoint Realm’s future importance, many can only open ten or so acupoints before breaking through.

Either lacks a suitable technique, sufficient resources, or limited talent, knowing not far capable in martial arts, better breaking through realms, rapidly enhancing power.

In essence,

Among the Life Acupoint Realm masters, the majority have opened only a few dozen acupoints.

In this realm, disparity in strength is most significant, and power is difficult to gauge.

Perhaps one initial Life Acupoint Realm warrior opens one hundred and eight acupoints, stronger than the late-stage Life Acupoint Realm power.

Perhaps one at Great Perfection about to break into Dharma Aspect, yet having opened only nine major acupoints, with mediocre power.

This realm is quite chaotic.

It’s akin to a modern corporate world: a small company worth millions with a dozen-person scale may possess proprietary secrets and exclusive channels, with revenue stronger than a listed company worth billions with hundreds of employees.

But the only way to judge is–

If an early-stage Life Acupoint Realm martial artist surpasses a late-stage Life Acupoint Realm, they must have many acupoints opened.

This is why Su Xin judges Bai Bingfeng’s Life Acupoint Technique formidable.

Since Zhou Bochen is the second elder of Profound Nether Sect, his technique shouldn’t fare badly; added with late Life Acupoint Realm cultivation, among many Life Acupoint Realm figures, his power should count as considerable.

Regardless of Bai Bingfeng’s cultivation, his strength far exceeding Zhou Bochen can only attribute to more acupoints.

After considerable thinking.

Su Xin continued to immerse himself in cultivation.

Daily increases in thousands of pounds of force, along with matching Physical Transformation deepening Su Xin’s martial arts obsession.

During cultivation, endless Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi in the small world continuously surged into his body, rapidly refined into True Qi, following specific routes to integrate into the Dantian.

His Dantian Qi Sea grows ever larger.

His cultivation steadily improves.

His physique further enters a swift uninterrupted enhancement.

Meanwhile, in the Otherworld.

His Illusion Body finally faced a challenge from Silent Heaven Sect’s Dharma Realm Great Power...

No, more accurately, suppression.

A dignified Dharma Realm Great Power naturally wouldn’t seek Su Xin under the guise of a challenge but rather proclaim intent to suppress him.
